Mission Statement

It is the mission of the Affirmative Action Office to foster and support all members of the Winona State University “Community of Learners”, enabling them to engage in academic pursuits, obtain and maintain employment, and utilize university services without experiencing discrimination based upon race, religion, color, creed, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, marital status, physical and mental disability, status due to receipt of public assistance, or any other group or class against which discrimination is prohibited. To this end, the Affirmative Action Office is dedicated to ensuring a campus environment that is free from prejudice, discrimination, harassment, hatred and ignorance - an intellectually and culturally vibrant environment where all individuals are welcomed, valued, respected, and unobstructed in their pursuit of excellence in their work and scholarship.
